Weeklies: I Fed 100 Animals Last Month

My mind is in Italy right now. I'm not sure what got me started, but I'm jonesing for a trip. Italy is my home away from home. I graduated from high school in Vicenza. Now I have a bunch of wild and crazy ideas for bringing people to Italy and seeing places I know and love.

This Week:

-- Quote of the Week: "I vote for Joss." --Kari Haley, The Signal Podcast

-- What Color Is Your Dragon? Is Now On Sale. The latest of my many new CDs is now on sale. This one is mostly filky goodness highlighting many of my favorite Sci Fi and Fantasy fandoms.

-- Tasty Wine Under $10: Martin Codex Rioja. Spanish wine based on a Spanish troubadour from the 14th century. Suggested by Jamie H. who runs the wine tastings at the Louisiana Renaissance Festival. Sign up now before space runs out.

-- Interesting Fact: 9 out of 10 forwarded emails I read that have some "Fact" is listed on snopes.com as untrue. Lesson: Don't read or forward emails.

-- New MarcSongs Podcast: "Monahan's Mudders Milk". Is this the "final" mix? Who knows. I might add more Firefly fans to the chorus if they come in. Meantime, you can now download the this Firefly filk for free through MarcSongs Podcast. Special thanks to the following people who recorded on the CD: James "Cedric" Hazelrig, April Porter, Jamie Haeuser, Katie Haeuser, Peggi Warner-Lalonde, Charlie Rogers, Mike Younger, Margaret Lipscomb, Jennifer Shrank. Oh! And if you're name is not here and you were there, let me know so I can add you to the credits.

-- Off to GenCon! The Brobdingnagian Bards hit the road next week on the road to GenCon. We'll be stopping off in Little Rock for another great show at Studio Joe's.

-- Marc Gunn Chords and Lyrics. Not all the lyrics listed on the Irish Songs & Lyrics website are songs that I play. So I'm starting to compile a new list of just those songs, plus some of my original music as well.

-- I fed 100 animals last month! I got a thank you letter from Thundering Paws after my show at the Cactus Cafe on the 30th. They said, that the $212 we raised for them would feed 100 animals for a month. Feels good to help! And thanks again to Cedric the Fiddler and Michelle Hedden for backing me up on stage.

-- Check me out on Myspace, SoundClick, Demand a Show on Eventful, Wikipedia, Twitter, Facebook, Livejournal, Sonicbids, and DeviantArt. And if you'd like a CD...
